hi all.

the pop-up window always automaticly generates and shows full web directory of the movie as its title on top of the browser. can i define this title inside MX so it could simply show anything i want it to be?

thanks in advance

Are you using the pop up window tutorial from Kirupa by any chance? If so you can specify the target window name . . .

```auto

on (release) {
	//customize the window that gets opened
	// 0 equals NO.
	// 1 equals YES.
	address = "http://www.kirupa.com/modular/pop-up.htm";
	**target_winName = "kirupa";**
	width = 400;
	height = 300;
	toolbar = 0;
	location = 0;
	directories = 0;
	status = 0;
	menubar = 0;
	scrollbars = 1;
	resizable = 0;
	//sends data back to the function
	openWinCentre(address, target_winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable);
}

```

hi Lunatic, here is my another question, what if the pop-up is opened by click a link at a HTML like below:

\<HTML\>\<HEAD\>\<TITLE\>index\</TITLE\>  
\<META http-equiv=Content-Type content=“text/html; charset=iso-8859-1”\>

window.moveTo(0,0);  
if (document.all) {  
top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);  
}  
else if (document.layers||document.getElementById) {  
if (top.window.outerHeight\<screen.availHeight||top.window.outerWidth\<screen.availWidth){  
top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;  
top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;  
}  
}  
window.moveTo(0,0);

var win= null;  
function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll){  
var winl = (screen.width-w)/2;  
var wint = (screen.height-h)/2;  
var settings =‘height=’+h+’,’;  
settings +=‘width=’+w+’,’;  
settings +=‘top=’+wint+’,’;  
settings +=‘left=’+winl+’,’;  
settings +=‘scrollbars=’+scroll+’,’;  
settings +=‘resizable=no’;  
win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);  
if(parseInt(navigator.appVersion) \>= 4){win.window.focus();}  
}  
//–\>

Well I’m not too great with html and I know nothing of Javascript. But a couple of things stick out at me.

win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);

and

onclick="NewWindow(this.href,‘LWL’,‘1200’,‘830’,‘no’)

For the first it seems like its ready to accept a variable myname. I assume you can set that somewhere.

For the second it looks like NewWindow is being created with a bunch of specific parameters. Seems like a window title could also be specified in there.

But I don’t know where to put additional code - sorry ☹ Maybe try posting that code in another forum topic - the Clientside one for html and JS etc.

Yeah, sorry I couldn’t help you on this one. Try posting it in the Clientside forum and I bet someone there can help you lickety split.
